- RRoss & Jamie lee26/07/2026The Sutherland WeddingThe Sutherland WeddingOur wedding at Balbirnie house was better than we could have ever imagined. Katy our wedding organiser was so helpful throughout the whole process, very quick with responding to all of our questions and queries and made sure every small detail was included in the planning. Lewis our Master of ceremony couldn’t have done more for us on the day of the wedding. He made us feel so at ease all day, brought positive energy and was running around for us to make sure everything was going as planned. He really did help make the day feel so special. Balbirnie house as a venue was perfect, all the staff were kind and pleasant. The grounds are absolutely stunning and perfect for our wedding photographs. The food was exceptional, every dish was delicious and cooked to perfection. All of our guests have been talking very highly of Balbirnie from the service, staff, food and venue as a whole. We can’t thank Balbirnie enough for making our dream day everything that we wanted and more!

- SSam & Cameron11/06/2026June Wedding June WeddingFrom the second we viewed Balbirnie we were made to feel special! Every person we ever had contact with after booking was so incredibly nice and professional. We were assigned Shannon as our wedding planner and she was absolutely amazing! She made everything so easy and kept us up to date with what needed done and when. She was always so quick to answer any questions and nothing was a bother for her. Now onto David our Master of Ceremonies… he is worth his weight in absolute gold. We stayed the night before the wedding and he met us at the front door on his day off and helped us in with our things and introduced himself. Fast forward to the wedding morning, he was anlways checking on us annd made everyone feel so relaxed! He made sure everyone knew what they were doing and that no one felt stressed. He is a man of many talents and even saved the day when I had a small dress emergency , aswell as keeping me calm and reassured the whole time. He was so attentive he was always making sure we had a drink in our hand or had eaten during the morning and drinks reception. Anything we asked it was never a bother! We cannot thank David enough for absolutely everything he did for us and our guests! Thank you to all staff at Balbirnie, every single person at the bar, front desk and servers all made us feel so special and always had a smile on their face. We cannot recommend getting married at Balbirnie enough. It’s such a beautiful venue and every member of staff is amazing! From the second we viewed Balbirnie we were made to feel special!

- EEmily and Andrew23/05/2026Incredible venue and team!Incredible venue and team!From the moment we had our first meeting with Katy at Balbirnie House we knew it was the venue for us! The decor inside is stunning, the grounds are incredible, the attention from staff is unparalleled. Our team on the day at reception, our night porters, all the behind the scenes staff, our master of ceremonies David, our co-ordinator Leah, and our ballroom manager Robyn were all incredibly helpful and made the day flow smoothly. Whatever you needed, they would instantly get you. If you had any problems or needed advice they would sort it out without hesitation. Our guests could not stop commenting on how stunning the venue was and how amazingly the day went. Not to mention the very affordable room pricing, and package deals. The food was equally incredible and guests said they were very well fed and attended to throughout. We want to say an extra special thank you to David, who went above and beyond for us, ensuring that everything went perfectly, including fitting my bustle and fluffing my dress and veil, helping us pose for photos, and running the day for us. He constantly checked in with us to see how we were doing and jumped into action when our Nana fell ill during dinner. And another special thank you to both Katy and Leah for helping us organise and plan our perfect day for months beforehand! Thank you all so much for everything! We’re currently trying to work out what event we can host here next!From the moment we had our first meeting with Katy at Balbirnie House we knew it was the venue for us!

- KK&C21/05/2026Basking in BalbirnieBasking in BalbirnieBalbirnie goes above and beyond at every step of the wedding process. On the day we toured Balbirnie to decide if it was the place for us, they made it a personalized experience and demonstrated to us the attention to detail we were looking for, especially because we were planning from overseas. As we approached our wedding date, we dropped in for meal tastings (which were fantastic) and other odds and ends and were always given the star treatment. Our wedding day was spectacular! The Balbirnie team took care of our vendors and ensured the day ran smoothly, including transitioning our outside wedding to an inside wedding in just a few minutes flat, and got us back outside for pictures once the sun was shinning again on their beautiful lawns. Our guests were well directed, our wedding flowers and signs were moved throughout the day, and everyone loved their food. Special thanks to Shannon for getting us onboarded, Rachel for flawlessly organizing, and David for being a miracle worker making our day go so smoothly.

- CCaroline & Scott26/04/2026Wedding of Dreams Wedding of DreamsCannot recommend Balbirnie House enough. Stunning grounds, stunning hotel and outstanding team of people. A beautiful wedding venue in every sense of the word. We got married at Balbirnie on 5th April 2026 and it was nothing short of magical. From our very first viewing, Gaynor made the experience everything we had hoped for from a venue. She put us at ease straight away, showed a genuine interest in our story and our vision. From that moment we were set on Balbirnie house as our dream venue. Each member of staff at Balbirnie greet all guests with kindness, warmth and go over and above to help. This truly made the whole experience such a joy. We worked with Shannon during the initial stages of wedding planning who went over and above to answer all queries we had. We were then assigned the lovely Katy as our designated wedding coordinator. Katy’s professionalism and attention to detail made the whole planning process seamless and stress free which was so greatly appreciated. I couldn’t have asked for better! David was our master of ceremonies on the wedding day and I cannot thank him enough for making our day as special as it was. From first thing in the morning til last thing at night he was by my side. He knew exactly what I needed without saying a word and was ten steps ahead at all times. You are a gift to any couple lucky enough to have you as their MoC. The rooms are absolutely gorgeous, spotless clean and very spacious. The food at Balbirnie is exquisite. Dining in both the orangery and for our wedding, every meal was delicious. Balbirnie House will have a special place in our hearts for the rest of our lives. Thank you to all staff, from the bottom of our hearts, for giving us the most perfect wedding of our dreams.

- MMollie and Allan25/02/2026Perfect Wedding VenuePerfect Wedding VenueFrom start to finish Balbirnie were an absolute dream when it came to our wedding. We chose Balbirnie mainly for the convenience of them being close to where we live and from hearing such good things from people we know who had attended weddings there but the whole experience completely exceeded our expectations. The whole process of planning the wedding was so easy and stressfree thanks to all of our vendors but especially Balbirnie and Katy our coordinator, for making everything easy to understand and always being quick to respond to any questions we had. During the planning Katy helped us with ideas and genuinely seemed interested and excited for us. The night before the wedding some friends and family stayed and had a meal and drinks. All the staff were fantastic who served us and the food was lovely. On the day we met Angela our Master of Ceremonies and she is such an angel. She set up everything for us in the morning exactly as I had planned but also worked with extra things I had brought as well as some of Balbirnies own items and came up with some beautiful ideas to add some more decorations throughout the ceremony and reception. She would come up whilst myself and the bridesmaids were getting ready to show me the ideas and just like Katy she showed genuine excitement for our day which was lovely. The entire day ran so smoothly, at no points were we rushed or hassled and our guests only had positive things to say about their experience at Balbirnie. The bedrooms were lovely and clean with comfortable beds. Breakfast was great also. We would recommend Balbirnie to everyone, whether it be for a wedding, night away or just for dinner.
